Here are some statistics for you, fanatic students. What you have here is the complete list of cards used during the Archmage Type One tourney in Rimouski, Quebec (Canada). 77 players competed to have their name carved on the local Trophy.

At the end of the tourney, the organizers allowed me to take the decklists. Thanks to Le Fou du Roi staff!

I made a few “Top 10’s”, followed by the raw statistics. Note that I’ve separated creatures from other spells. The number means the number of players using at least one copy of the card. Sideboards have been included.
